Captive Goddess

New York: The Macaulay Company. Very Good in Very Good dj. (c.1935). First Edition. Hardcover. (price-clipped) DETAILS NEEDED. "Lois Bull has departed from the Broadway scene to delve into colorful, out-of-the-way places in the Near East. In Tommy Drew she creates a believable character who finds life good because he has a knack for making it continually exciting, and who fears nothing except beguiling females who might curb his roving disposition." Case in point: the "fabled golden goddess" depicted on the front of the dust jacket. This is a "Lost Race" novel, later published in paperback under the title "Forbidden," and as the jacket blurb suggests, this wasn't the author's typical subject matter; she was more at home writing such fare as "Broadway Virgin" and "Gold Diggers." .
